Police said a man, described as 6 feet, 2 inches to 6 feet, 3 inches tall with a thin build, brown eyes and a goatee wearing a green winter hat and blue jeans, asked a clerk for rolling papers then demanded that the clerk empty the register.

He was given cash, two packs of cigarettes and a glass pipe with white and blue streaks on it, police said, before fleeing the store on foot in an easterly direction.

The man told the clerk he had a gun but never showed one, police said. Anyone with information about the robbery is asked to call police at 668-8711 or the Manchester Crimeline at 624-4040.
